Lyrics

Topaz (Remastered)

New cities by the sea
Skyscrapers are winking
Some hills are never seen
Universe expanding

We're gazing out to sea
Blue dolphins are singing
Minds swim in ecstasy
Clear planet, ever free

Topaz
(Our hearts are traveling faster)
Topaz
(Faster than the speed of love)
Topaz
(Straight through a tear in the clouds)
Topaz
(Up to the Heavens above)

Bright ships will sail the seas
Starfishes are spinning
Some hills are never seen
Our universe is expanding

Moon rise upon the sea
Starships are blinking
We'll walk in ecstasy
Clear planet blue and green

Topaz
(Our thoughts are traveling faster)
Topaz
(Moving beyond the Heavens above)

Planets pulsating, constellations creating
Voices are guiding me to the cities by the sea
(Cities by the sea)
Yes, I see cities by the sea

Deep forests by the sea
Skyscrapers are winking
Some hills are never seen
The universe is expanding

Topaz
(Our hearts are traveling faster)
Topaz
(Faster than the speed of love)
Topaz
(Straight through a tear in the clouds)
Topaz
(Up to the Heavens above)

Topaz
(Our hearts are traveling faster)
Topaz
(Faster than the speed of love)
Topaz
(Straight through a tear in the clouds)
Topaz
(Up to the Heavens above)

Topaz
(Our hearts are traveling faster)
Topaz
(Faster than the speed of love)
Topaz
(Straight through a tear in the clouds)
